SCHOOL BOARD OF BREVARD COUNTY OFFICE OF PURCHASING SERVICES 2700 JUDGE FRAN JAMIESON WAY VIERA, FL 32940 6601 PB #14 PB 046 DR Purchase of New School Buses VENDOR RECOMMENDED FOR AWARD: VENDOR NAME AMOUNT AWARDED ITEMS. Matthews Bus Inc. $531,415.00 Quantity of 5, 2014 Thomas C2 w/accessories LBS South LLC $515,915.00 Quantity of 5, 2014 IC/Navistar CE w/accessories TOTAL $1,047,330.00 CONTRACT TERM: Pricing is based on State School Bus Bid #2013-01 administered by FDOE School Transportation Management Section. RECOMMENDATION: It is the recommendation of Arby Creach, Director of Transportation Services, and Judy Preston, Associate Superintendent of Financial Services to utilize the above mentioned bid for the purchase of ten replacement school buses as outlined in the district capital replacement plan. This replacement school bus purchase consists of Type C conventional buses with a 77 passenger seating capacity with climate control. The District operates school buses manufactured by two primary providers: Thomas Bus and IC/Navistar. This purchase is for 5 buses from each of these manufacturers. Transportation Services has established a plan that maximizes the residual value of each bus along with controlling operating costs for years 6 thru 10 of the vehicle ownership. Most of the components on the buses have a 5 year warranty which means the maintenance costs that are incurred for the first 5 years are primarily for routine maintenance such as oil changes, fuel system, and cooling system service. Based on the District s historical analysis, the cost for maintaining buses begins to escalate after the 5 th year. The industry benchmark for school bus operation is approximately 10 years of service before replacement.
